I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. I'm tired of diets. I'm tired of the weight loss / gain yo-yo. Before I lose all hope of ever getting this weight off, I've decided to make a drastic move. May 31st, 2010 I'll be or will have had weight loss surgery. After much research, I've decided to go with the gastric sleeve. After even much more research, I've decided to have it done in Mexico. So there, the secret is out. Wish me luck on my journey.

September 2011

Ok so it's been 1 year and 3 months since my Sleeve surgery. I've lost a total of 124 pounds. The weight has slowed to maybe a pound a month which is hard on my brain BUT the body is still changing which is kinda weird. In the last 2 months, I've gone from a loose size 10 pants to a tight size 6 that my daughter says looks sexy. Yeah I know, that's weird.

Anyway. So I haven't measured since June. Here's the new stats.

How on earth it happened I don't know but my waist has gone down 5 inches so maybe the loose skin IS drying up??? Neck down 1 inch, bicep only down 1/4th of an inch but that's ok being I've been hitting the machines at the gym trying to make the 'wings' look better. Forearm down an inch and a quarter. Chest (above boobs) down 5 inches...size medium tops are getting too big. =) Hips down only an inch but that's just my shape...the hour glass is re-appearing. Thigh is down almost 2 inches each so that's 4 inches gone. Calves down almost 2 inches.

I started going to the gym 2 weeks ago...have been maybe 5-7 times so far so I'm sure that's helping BUT not to receive all the credit.
